    Scale of 1 - 10
    1- Strongly Disagreen
    5 Neutral
    10 Strongly Agree

    I'd have to say I fall somewhere on the 10 range.

    mostly because people make excuses for everything and honestly I don't care why. It's an excuse. And I also really can't stand willful mediocrity. I don't understand it and I don't think I ever will.

    If you had just said- it's not a priority for me right now- good job- god bless you and on your way. But when people say I don't have time or this or that- then its' a justification to validate themselves to me- and honestly I just don't care- it says more about you than me- you don't need to justify yourself me- and I hate that mentality- just own what you do. One way or the other- Just effing own it.

    I find this quote to be the can opener for people :p Most will be so use to hiding behind excuses they won't see it.

    If I substitute the word "hate" with "disagree with", it sounds better to me. "Hating" on something seems more personal.

    I think that person needs to work through their anger. I'm sad when I see those things in others - but know I do them too some times
